It's so LOGICAL! Vocal ANALYSIS of one of the greatest lyrical journeys ever with Supertramp!

Kirk snuck this song into my recording list knowing I needed to hear Supertramp for the first time, that the composition and lyrics would intrigue me, and that I would absolutely fall in love with "The Logical Song". I mean, "please tell me who I am" gives such profound imagery, it's still stuck with me now!

Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Supertramp for the first time, performing "The Logical Song”.

You know it's good music when you've been listening to a song for over 30 years and it's still just as captivating as the first time you heard it.

This vocalist, Roger Hodgson (born 21 March 1950) has been recognized as one of the most gifted composers, songwriters and lyricists of our time. As the legendary voice of Supertramp and composer of many of the band's greatest hits, he gave us "Give a Little Bit, " "Dreamer, " "Take the Long Way Home, " "Breakfast In America, " "It's Raining Again, " "School, " "Fools Overture" and so many others that have become the soundtrack of our lives. Roger's trademark way of setting beautiful introspective lyrics to upbeat melodies resonated and found its way into the hearts and minds of people from cultures around the world. His songs have remarkably stood the test of time and earned Roger and Supertramp an adoring worldwide following.

Supertramp. Snubbed by the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame. Perhaps the unsung hero of progressive rock. For me, one of the greatest bands of all time. Thank you for covering this classic.

[gsg]

The song is about the loss of childhood innocence, and the pressures of adulthood. Awesome lyrics and well written.

[chickndinner]

I never get tired of watching people's first reactions to songs that were ubiquitous to my childhood.

[madmexk]

The obvious songs to listen to by SuperTramp are School, Goodbye Stranger, Bloody Well Right, Breakfast in America, Take the Long Way Home, Dreamer, Give a Little Bit, Rudy, Crime of the Century...So many more as well.

[ghosthand]

This just makes me realize how old I am. When I first saw this I thought " Oh, cool. this is a classic. I can't wait to see her analysis of this one." Then when you started talking I realized you have never heard this one! It just stuns me that a lot of people have never heard songs like this, one's I grew up with and just take for granted. I love how old songs like this can still surprise new listeners after all these years.

[abbabi]

How can this band be left out of the Rock Hall? Crime of the Century is an epic album

[tubewayarmy]

Back in the 70's and early 80's when you tell who the band was by the sound, no matter what they were singing. Supertramp was one that had so distinct a sound you could easily immediatl recognise them.

[firedoc]

LOVE Supertramp. Of all their songs " Take the Long Way Home" is my favorite. The entire album "Breakfast in America" is a must for anyone with musical appreciation collection.

[quinnhen]

Supertramp, Styx, Rush, Yes, Led, Journey, and so many more were unbelievable to grow up to!! Fantastic lyrics, music, singers in the 70’s and 80’s!!

[hansmolders]

I am German, 57 years old and grew up in this world. This song meant so much to me! Artistic rebellion from a middle-class upbringing!

[metalmark]

Hard to describe this song. Could it be sensible? logical?, responsible?, practical? dependable? clinical?, intellectual?, cynical? radical? liberal? fanatical? criminal? respectable? presentable? or, a vegetable? Elizabeth will just have to break it down, Charismatical.

[davesunhammer]

SuperTramp is a band you definitely need to come back to. So many great songs.

[betbuk]

You HAVE to listen to the studio recording! Supertramp were the GOLD STANDARD for production in the late 70's. The recordings have so much depth, punch and drama! Don't know if the modern ears have the patience for all the layers of digestion required to fully "get" Supertramp! Thank you for pumping them back up!

[haydendegrow]

Supertramp is incomparable. They blurred the lines of different genres and melded music into a this cohesive perfection

[nightmusic]

Oh Kirk what did you make Elizabeth do? The Supertramp albums are legendary. Awesome songs to hang memories on. Listening to any Supertramp songs will remind me of the things I did and didn’t do in my teens. ( the albums were already out for years, somehow they never age.)

[jefflong]

I once said to my sister, also a huge Supertramp fan, that when he sings it makes me want to go to him, give him a hug and ask if he's ok. She broke into tears and said, yes! Exactly!

[TheBMan]

This is one of those cases where the studio version is considerably better than the live version although they did a pretty bang up job for such a hard song to reproduce live. It ends the way it does here because on the album it's a fade out with the various different sound effects. Definitely check out the album "Breakfast in America" particularly for the title track, studio version of this, "Goodbye Stranger, " and "Take the Long Way Home."

I am 57. I grew up in the Bay area projects. I was made a ward of the state. This song makes me think of those days. My life is better now 🙂. " Strive to be better & believe in yourself. ✌️🙏❤️.
